      Canonical has no problem holding back features but has no hesitation about giving there software center a facelift.

      Yeah, they also have a LivePatch thing going on too...

      Have you used the LivePatch? Isn't it only useful when it comes updating the kernel and not needing to reboot?

      I don't use it, the idea is neat but... we need to reboot anyway.

        I have not, but you need to have an account for that. So I just update and reboot.

              Better than Ubuntu which won't likely get it for three years 😉

                          Remember when you used to purchase computer systems and have to uninstall their bloatware. . now you have to uninstall the OS too. . .

                            Why do Microsoft feel the need to tell us what browser to use? didn't they get in trouble with this years ago regarding browser monopolisation. I just don't think there is any need for it..

                              I'm already about done with Windows. Just gotta get my graphics card working for the things i want, and I'll be in good shape.

                                  Did you hear that apple even stated they are concerned about the price of it and that only something like 20% of apple users are planning on upgrading. . . lol.

                                      @dafyre Starting to feel the same way, when I do fully move over, I will probably go over to Deepin, quite like where that distro is going. I feel it's just a shame about Windows 10, they had everything so right in Windows 7. Don't get me wrong, there are some nice features to windows 10, like the improved task manager and the right click start menu shortcuts to device manager etc..but that's about it......

                                        Yeah. I was just telling somebody else today that I actually like WIndows 10 -- BUT -- Microsoft juts needs to stay out of our way.

                                          @dafyre Another thing I detest is this windows as a service crap.... All I need is Security updates...
                                          Not for your default pdf reader or browser to be reset when windows feature updates have been installed, and yes you can ignore, but it will soon keep telling you to install it. Lets not forget they are moving everything about and changing the OS in stages (control panel) for example, some bits here some bits there.....It's just a mess at the minute I think....

                                          Microsoft are doing so well with their 365/Azure platform, but I believe they have got windows 10 so wrong.... I just don't see this getting better at all.

                                          Anyway, hoped you all enjoy my love for windows 10 🙂
